Therefore the kidneys arc , very important in health or disease because they ■ filter out of the blood most of the wa&tc (poisonI* ous) substances and the blood then flows on toI ward the heart thru the kidney vein. What the g kidney takes out of ths blood forms urine. Soft * is very important to have the water tested by a J chemist, at least once a year. I would suggest i that everybody send a sample to Dr. Pierce’s J Laboratory in Buffalo, N. ; ¥., and receive back a I thorough chemical and microscopical test, free of I charge. J The kidneys and bladder suffer from the wear ■ and tear, and wc get chronic inflammations some* ! i times indicated by painful voiding of ’I water—dull, heavy feelings. Perhaps the uric : acid is stored up in the system in excessive 111 amount, and consequently when the urate salts J | are deposited in muscles and joints one suffers I from Lumbago (pain in back), rheumatic pains, II gout, etc. Nothing will act so nicely as "Anuric” (antiI; uric-acid) —a recent discovery of Dr. Pierce’s which can be had at all drug stores. “Anuric" 1 washes away the poisons, cleanses the bladder and kidneys ■rendering them antiseptic— conseouent- i is soon cuiwd of lumbago, rheumatism, gout, and the body xs put into a clean, healthy state,

X ———————" 1 " "* ; DRUGGISTS! VICK'S VAPORUB ' SHORTAGE OVERCOME AT LAST

’ The Deal Scheduled for Last November, Which Was Post--1 poned on Account of the Inr fluenza Epidemic, is Now 3 Re-instated — Good During t the Month of March. 1 1 . OVER ONE MILLION JARS OF VAPORUB PRODUCED s EACH WEEK. 1 1 It is with pi ide that we announce f to the drug trade that the shortage • of Vick’s Vapoßub, which has lasted s since last October, is now overcome. • Since January Ist, we have been runE ning our laboratory twenty-three and f a half hours out of each twenty-four. Last week we shipped the last of our ‘ back orders, and retail druggists, ■ therefore, are no longer requested to order in small quantities only. NOVEMBER DEAL RE-INSTATED This deal, which we had expected to put on last November, and which ) had to be postponed on account of . the shortage of Vapoßub, is re-instat- ' ed for the month of March. This allows a discount of 10 % on shipments from jobbers’ stock of quantities of from 1 to 4 gross; 5 % of this ! discount is allow cd by the jobber and 5 % by us* We advise the retail druggists to i place their orders so 1 that the jobbers will be able to get i prompt shipments to them. THANKS OF THE PUBLiI? DUE THE DRUG TRADE DURING THE INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC. The thanks of the American public are certainly due the entire drug trade { wholesale, manufacturing—for what they accomplished during the recent influenza epidemic. The war caused a shortage of physicians —nurses were almost impossible to obtain—the demand on the drug trade was unexpected and overwhelming, and to this demand they responded nobly. Retail druggists kept open day and night and slept where they dropped behind the prescription counter. Wholesale druggists called their salesmen oif the road to help fill orders—hundreds

11 wired us to ship Vick’s Vapoßub by' ■ the quickest route, regardless of ex-' ’ pense. A TREMENDOUS JOB TO IN- , CREASE OUR PRODUCTION. p In this emergency we have tried to do our part. We scoured the country for raw materials—our traffic manager spent his days riding freight cars in—we shipped raw materials in carload lots by express and pleaded with manufacturers to Increase their j deliveries to us. But it was a slow process. Some of our raw materials are produced only in Japan—supplies in this coun- : try were low and shipments required ’ three months to come from the Far I I East. Then we had to recruit and I • train skilled labor. We brought our I salesmen into the factory and! 1 trained them as foremen. We i invented new machinery, and man-1 aged to install it on Christmas day, • so as not to interfere with our daily ' production. 143 JARS OF VAPORUB EVERY ■ MINUTE DAY AND NIGHT. By January first we had everything ; ready to put on our night shift, and 1 since then our laboratory has been J running day and night. To feed our j automatic machines, which drop out j one hundred and forty-three jars of: I Vapoßub a minute or one million and ; j eighty thousand weekly, has required t ■ a force of 500 people. Our Case De- f | partment, created for the benefit of ; I these workers, served 7,000 meals j ! during the month of January alone. ; 13 MILLION JARS OF VAPORUB ! DISTRIBUTED SINCE OCTOBER I An idea of the work we have ac- j I , complislied this fall may be given by, • our production figures—l3,o2B,976 ; jars of Vapoßub manufactured and : distributed since last October—one ! jar for every twenty-two families in ; ! the entire United States. During the influenza epidemic, j; ! Vick’s Vapoßub was used as an ex- [' ternal application in connection with the physicians’ treatment, and thousands of people, unable to obtain a doctor, relied on Vick’s almost exclusively. Literally millions of families all over the country, from California to Maine, and from the Great Lakes to the Gulf, rz) have found Vick’s Vapoßub the ideal home remedy for Wh croup and cold trouDies. // Jaw I <4 1
